Just do 0.25 (25%) times 395
its the same as doing 395 divided by 25
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
This is how I write
y=kx+m
but I have seen some write it like this:
y=mx+b
Well both of them are the same thing, I'll use the first one because I'm more comfortable with it.
y=kx+m
To find out what k
So you first need to choose two points.
I'll go for (0,-5) and (2,0)
Now you could insert k into the equation and it will look like this.
To find out what m is just pick one point and insert it into the equation. So if I pick (0,-5). 0=X therefore it should be replaced by x and -5=y therefore it should also be replaced by y.
m=-5
Try it with another point to see if you get the same answer. this time I'll pick (-6,10)
m= -5
The equation will be y=-5/2x-5)
39 foot into 3 pieces
one is 13 feet
the other pieces add up to the
remaining wire
which is 39-13=26 so
the two remaining pieces are x and y
one must be 2 less than 3 times the
other
x must be 2 less than 3 times the y
x=-2+3y
x=3y-2
x+y=remaining=26
26=x+y
x=3y-2
subsitute
26=3y-3+y
add like terms
26=4y-2
add 2 to both sides
28=4y
divide by 4
7=y
subsitute
7+x=26
subtract 7
x=19
19>7
7 feet is the legnth of the shorter
piece
